Hectic Weekend!

Yesterday was quite hectic, couldn't find time to squeeze an entry in my blog. Had quite a few guests in the house, mom & father-in-law, my sis, my two nephews and a few more coming over.

My husband suddenly has this craving for  `pulut nyior ' to go with `ikan goreng' so as always his wish is my command. Anyway, i have  my mom-in law  to give me a hand coz  this is more of a Trengganu dish. Wash the glutinous rice and cook like you're cooking  rice (1:1) but lesser water. Do not open the cover eventho u see steam coming out. After a while downsize  the fire of your stove. I need to try using  rice cooker next time around and share my findings with my mom-in law. All the while she's been cooking `pulut' over fire. You can steam it but this way is faster. I shaped the cooked glutinous rice into balls and rolled em over the shredded coconut (white only) mixed with a lil' bit of salt. As for the fish i smeared it with turmeric+salt+blended onion and a lil' bit of dried chilly (blended). Walla...

 Cara Berlauk

On top of that i had to deliver `kueh cara berlauk' ordered by my sister's friend who was having `makan-makan' at her house after  the Asar prayer. I was juggling with time and after the guest started leaving around 9 pm we  had to sent our daughter back to Cyberjaya. I managed to doze off all the way and back. Do hope everybody who dropped by had a good stay as the saying says `gendang gendut tali kecapi, kenyang perut suka hati'.
